    We are Bailey and Robbie and we are working on Klaus (https://klausai.com/): hosted OpenClaw that is secure and powerful out of the box. Running OpenClaw requires setting up a cloud VM or local container (a pain) or giving OpenClaw root access to your machine (insecure). Many basic integrations (eg Slack, Google Workspace) require you to create your own OAuth app. We make running OpenClaw simple by giving each user their own EC2 instance, preconfigured with keys for OpenRouter, AgentMail, and Orthogonal. And we have OAuth apps to make it easy to integrate with Slack and Google…

    Hi HN, I’ve been following the OpenClaw project and noticed frictions for non-expert users: most discussions and docs are too nerdy... Installing OpenClaw costs lots of brain cells. Uninstalling costs even more! Besides, security/privacy risks exist for non-technical users. So I built ClawSimple, a tool that make deploy and run your own OpenClaw-based assistant easier. With ClawSimple you can: - Spin up one or multiple OpenClaw robots in a few minutes; - Focus on using the assistant instead of wrestling with deployment details. For people who don’t want to pay for a managed service, I…

    I run OpenClaw agents with access to email, calendar, and files, and kept worrying about them doing things I never actually asked for. ArmorClaw captures intent and cryptographically binds the agent’s tool use to that committed intent. If an agent tries to call a tool outside that plan, it gets rejected. For example, if you ask your agent to ‘email dad asking how he’s doing,’ it should only need your email tool. If it also tries to read your calendar, ArmorClaw rejects that. It’s an open-source OpenClaw plugin, and installation is one command: curl -fsSL…

    I run an OpenClaw agent named Jimmy. Jimmy handles SEO tracking, content writing, and code tasks for my projects. Managing it all entirely through chat got messy fast. Thus I built VidClaw. It's a self-hosted dashboard that gives you: - Kanban board where you drag tasks and the agent picks them up automatically - Real-time token usage - Model switching - Soul editor - Skills manager - Activity calendar The whole thing binds to localhost only — you access it through an SSH tunnel. No accounts, no cloud, no tracking. Your data stays on your machine. Stack: React + Vite + Tailwind on the…

    Hi HN, I'm Robel. I built LogClaw because I was tired of paying for Datadog and still waking up to pages that said "something is wrong" with no context. LogClaw is an open-source log intelligence platform that runs on Kubernetes. It ingests logs via OpenTelemetry and detects anomalies using signal-based composite scoring — not simple threshold alerting. The system extracts 8 failure-type signals (OOM, crashes, resource exhaustion, dependency failures, DB deadlocks, timeouts, connection errors, auth failures), combines them with statistical z-score analysis, blast radius, error velocity, and…

    Hi HN, I’ve been using OpenClaw daily since it dropped in November. I love the agency it provides, but as I started giving it more production API keys and access to my local filesystem, I realized the threat model was essentially "hope-based." We ran an experiment to see how resilient a standard OpenClaw setup was to prompt injection. Within 2 mins, we were able to exfiltrate active session tokens and API credentials through the chat interface. The problem is fundamental: in most agent architectures, the LLM logic and the sensitive credentials live in the same process space. If the agent is…
